Snow Machine Festival Niseko

Snow Machine Festival is an epic music festival that combines the thrill of mountain adventure with the energy of a music festival. Launched in 2020, Snow Machine was born out of a vision to create a winter festival experience unlike any other—blending world-class skiing and snowboarding by day with top-notch live music and DJ sets by night. With epic events already held in Hakuba, its Niseko's turn next!

The festival debuted in Hakuba, Japan, a stunning ski resort known for its deep powder, rich history, and traditional Japanese charm. Snow Machine’s unique location set it apart right from the start, offering attendees not only fantastic slopes but also cultural experiences like traditional Japanese onsens, food markets, and sake tastings. The first edition attracted thousands of festival-goers and featured big-name acts in electronic and indie music and we can't wait to see the same vibes here in Niseko.

2025 will bring the festivities to Niseko from March 11th to 15th with England's Chase and Status headlining alongside longstanding American turntablist and producer A-Trak, Action Bronson, Bob Moses, House Meat Disco and a plethora of other big name acts including Japan's own Wata Iragishi, Dj Kentaro and Ken Ishi.
